Dear Friends, evening draws near, birds fly home to safe nests
another sunrise awaits, has humanity passed all trials and tests?
another sunrise awaits, has humanity passed all trials and tests?
Last sunset or first sunrise, every year ends.This day too shall pass.
Schools will open, traffic will move, children will go to their class.
Schools will open, traffic will move, children will go to their class.
Year's end or a new beginning, wars continue, never ending killing,
if wisdom prevails, instead of bombing, there will be friendly singing.
year ends , on days of miracles, celebration blessings and forgiving
fruit cakes, puddings, gifts, presents,family meetings and bells ringing,

year ends , on days of miracles, celebration blessings and forgiving
fruit cakes, puddings, gifts, presents,family meetings and bells ringing,
each year has time,temperature and turmoil
this too had suspense, stormy surprises
ambushes attacks armed protests
beauty behind barricades

ecosystem changes
environmental disasters
joyful achievements and losses
lockouts lock downs
curfews
shootings in holy places
In all poets and writers , read recited
wrote for peace joy and stood united

Change and endings (and beginnings, too) are indeed tumultuous. But like the ending of this piece suggest, there is always hope. I hold on to that--the hope, and the celebration that might come.
P.S. I sent you an email. Letting you know here, in case it went to your spam folder.
Dear Magaly Thank you I received the email and have written a piece for the First Writer's Pantry.
best wishes
Fantastic! Off to read.
Ending and beginnings go side by side and we can't stop any of the two. A good go.
